Thursday, 21 Aug, 2024 0

Norwegian Cruise Line is returning to the Port of Philadelphia for the first time in many years.

On April 16, 2026, Norwegian Jewel will sail seven-to-nine-day cruises to Bermuda, launching the city as a new cruise destination.

Philadelphia cruises will depart from the SouthPort Marine Terminal Complex, where plans are underway with the local government to develop a facility to welcome cruisers.

Jewel’s Bermuda itineraries will feature overnight calls to Royal Naval Dockyard, Bermuda.

This new homeport for NCL will provide the Mid-Atlantic region more access to cruising.

“The Port of Philadelphia is extremely excited to partner with Norwegian Cruise Line, ” said Jeff Theobald, executive director and CEO of PhilaPort.

“We look forward to this next phase of growth.”

NCL’s new 2026 spring/summer season includes nearly 250 itineraries for nine ships.

They will call to 30 unique destinations across the Caribbean, Bermuda, Bahamas, Canada and New England, as well as Alaska.
